It has been a long time ..

Pardon the abscence . I was turning my life upside down. I have now landed and getting my equilibrium back. July 18th I hopped in a 24 ft Uhaul and started driving West. North Carolina waved good bye with storms and plenty of waterfalling along I40. Good Bye beautiful Appalachian Water Spirit. I will miss you!






On through Tennessee and Illinois and the endless green fields of corn and soybeans. From the road the crops look good this summer.



As evening drew to a close the storms kicked up and the lightning chased us to Iowa.





The next day we drove thru Iowa and South Dakota. Sunny Skies and the Uhaul bounced along without incident . About 100 miles from Rapid City we lost the tread from one of the back truck tires. The sun was setting .....more later as we travel West.

Holding the Vision

What do you dream about ? Do you take your mind's meanderings seriously? Are you a part of the dream or does it feel like it is a TV screen and it is happening to someone else? Manifesting . When you can get out of your head and into your heart and feel your dream, hear the sounds, feel the air on your face and enjoy the scents around you then you are there. Close your eyes and feel your favorite place with all the aspects that make it special . Hold the vision and manifest.

Brief interlude

The Forest is green and inviting , come inside....

Set your sights on the Continental Divide




Delight in the discovery of a random rock cairn as the stream mingles with the lake




Explore a potential hobbit house




Find a rushing river




Join a Mule Deer for a walk




And sit for a while , listening to the stillness punctuated by the loon.

A Glance Back

A glance back in time to visit with an old friend. Welcoming canopies of tender green. The sound of tumbling waters and the distant woodpecker . Treading the path well known. Time well spent with an old friend .

Sometimes it takes the extraordinary to allow us to focus on the ordinary. To see with clear sight those things in front of our eyes instead of the buzz behind the eyes. How many times do we miss the miracles around us whilst we are imprisoned by the circular concerns of the day? I wish you the Gift of Clear sight as you celebrate this weekend those loved ones who have nurtured you.
